Shepherd Hardware 9069, 3/4" Caster Furniture Sockets, White

We had a roll about stool. The factory welded an end cap on each leg with a threaded center nut that received a threaded caster. The tack weld broke on one leg and the caster fell off. The legs were 1/2" diameter hollow tubes. I cut off 1/2" of each tube and thus the welded end cap as well. I inserted these plastic sockets into the tube end and then casters. Worked fine and saved $150 stool Casters were from the Shepherd as well, from my local big box hardware store. (Shepherd 2 in. Black Plastic and Steel Twin Wheel Swivel Stem Caster with 75 lb. Load Rating (2-Pack))

Been meaning to replace the lost wheels and realized I only have one socket left. Measured the pipes and hoped for the best with this. Almost didn't fit...until I used my hammer and the metal shaved the extra edges. Now there's room for more shoes below!

This older bedframe uses these larger, hard to find inserts. They insert into the frame perfectly but are a pain to get onto the caster stem. VERY tight but works perfectly once on. I found that warming them in hot water and using a silicone gel lube made it a bit easier. I do recommend them if you have the patience!

These allowed me to make a plant stand mobile. Works as advertised, good stuff.

I had to open up the inside diameter a little where the wheel stem was to seat in order to have the wheel stem seat correctly and securely. I had to use a hammer in order to install the wheels. Once I did that this item worked great!

These are hard plastic. Before banging them into the leg of the bed frame, I had to drill them out to 11/32 inch to accommodate the hump in the stem of Waxman bed caster. Secure tightly but without deforming in a vice or clamp and drill into the top and downward to avoid splitting the top. Don't go any bigger or the wheel will fall off when you lift the corner of the bed up.

Came next day after I ordered it. Easy installation and seems better than the original ones.

I got these bad boys for my desk I made. It’s using 3/4” galvanized pipe for legs. I wanted to put on some casters to help save the flooring in my apartment. These are too small. The rim of these plugs fit, but nothing else does. I’m going to order up a few sizes. Since these slide in to my pipe and wiggle a ton. I wrapped some electrical tape around but it didn’t keep my casters from tilting. Attached are pictures of the slant.
